Ep 3: The Evidence Catcher

View descriptionShare

Lianna has spent her whole career protecting kids. Inspired by Sage and her goals to help other survivors get illegal images off the internet, Lianna and her non-profit team push boundaries and create Arachnid, the mother of all web crawlers, to hunt down CSAM images in the darkest corners of the internet. But nothing prepared the Arachnid team for the firehose of what they found and that ended up putting the tiny Canadian non-profit on the global stage to take on Big Tech.

From TVO Podcasts, the Investigative Journalism Bureau, The Toronto Star, and Piz Gloria Productions, this six-part podcast series follows the survivors' long-shot fight against the most powerful companies in the world to end a massive, global trade in child sex abuse imagery.
